filing

If you were planning on using your refund dollars for a big TV, braces, vacation, or anything else - you are probably going to have to adjust your plans.

With the deadline for filing your federal tax returns less than a week off, the Internal Revenue Service says we're ahead of where we were at this time last year.

Yesterday, I told you about seven no-no's when it comes to deductions if you don't want to get audited.  Today, it's ten things you SHOULD do to keep more of YOUR money.  Since the goal of every taxpayer is to make sure the IRS gets as little as possible, you need to take every tax deduction, credit or other income adjustment you can.
